    It’s not a crisis. It’s common sense. The degrees aren’t worth the cost. The only people for whom this is a “crisis” are the administrators and faculty who live off the students’ tuition.

      Colleges were not intended to prepare people for the job market. If that's what you want go to trade school. I mean, were you conned by some hustler into thinking a major French existentialism was going to get you into Google? Let me tell you something about you. You, at this point in your life, don't need an education. You aren't capable of receiving it. You want to make money, so pick a career and embark on a course of training. Why do you stand around complaining about colleges because they aren't doing something they were never designed to do? There are places that train you for a job. If you lack the facilities to find them maybe you should apply for social security disability.

      Why the cost is so high is now a politicized question about which there is endless debate, but the answer given by those researchers who I judge to have the most integrity is that it is mostly a function of bloated administration and their bloated salaries. A lot of salaries at public institutions are public information you can look up. These people make a lot of money and they can aggrandize themselves and make even more money by creating departments and hiring people under them. Maybe they do good work. I don't know. I 've never seen an analysis of the contributions of deans and student advisors and all other types of college administrators etc. Then you have private/government partnerships in which corporations are raping us blind, getting the public to fund research which serves their commercial interests. And that's one reason this won't stop is because it's an avenue by which corporations reach into our pockets and like hardly anyone knows about it.
      So that is where the money is going. How is it getting in? A lot of has to do with the accreditation system. You can't just build a school to meet increased demand, the normal market driven mechanism which is supposed to keep prices reasonable. You have to go through an impossible process. So the number of schools remains limited while the number of students wanting to attend goes up. Basic supply and demand says the price can then go up. So we might be able to solve the problem by creating more schools, especially since we have all these grad students wanting to be profs but can't get one of the few precious spots. But, obviously, we have some parties who are interesting in maintaining the artificial choke points which raise prices and funnel loan money into bureaucrats and corporate R and D.

      @miguelgarcia6493 9 месяцев назад +27

      I'll say most of degrees are useless because colleges created degree programs to try to get state funds, grants, and raise tuition. Some very specific degrees such as (insert name of ethnicity) studies are so specific and actually hurt graduates because of it. At that point, should offer a typical history degree that can be a lot more flexible and gives you the tools and expertise for a variety of fields. A specific study would be more appropriate at the graduate level.
      Although some fields such as STEM are much more justified in having many specific programs than the social sciences and humanities.

      Disagree. The trade schools and 2 year degree/certificates are for getting a job. The point of a university is to get a "higher education", hence the term. And learning about classic writings, philosophy, etc is an important part of higher education. If you choose to major in engineering to be highly employable like I did, you are free to take on the extra classes and do so. And it often takes 5 years in the US to get an engineering degree these days

    I got a degree in Mathematics with honors, a Bachelor in Social Work, and I am a veteran. Im male too which I'm sure played a part in how my former teacher treated me. There was this terrible teacher in my Master program in San Francisco State University. She treated me like a rebellious 13 year old. She said they dropped their standards for accepting me in front of other teachers and students. She said she needed to go slowly through every single sentence of all my papers to have a chance for me to graduate. I did enough in life to know she was full of it. I was 29 year old at the time. Imagine I was actually a naive 13 year old who actually believed her and stop trying because I didnt feel good enough. Some teachers are just insecured people who tear people down for their enjoyment. Of course I left since she was one of the main professors and Im not going to pay thousands of dollars to be insulted. I got a career which made more than master degree. I write purchase justifications for my job and proof read my coworkers, so former teacher was literally making it up. I tried to get my Master degree to be a professor. It actually good I dropped out because it looks like they are laying professors off and the universities are dying. I also hope they layoff that teacher too in the mass layoff.

    When I was in college, I overheard administrators and higher-ups openly discussing how to deliberately waste more money to increase budgets. I was in the IT section of my college, and, oh my god, the person in charge of the security institute building did not know anything about technology yet would do all these terrible things. They would openly criticize my professors for teaching us more than what was directly listed in our course outline. This person cut multiple teachers' pay by 20k and removed some classes, even though these professors practically built the TSI building from the ground up-wiring, maintenance, setting up various college infrastructure (APS, SWITCHES AND ROUTERS, TYPE 1 HYPERVISORS, ESXI, etc., and the list goes on.) Three of the professors in that building left, and students just left; courses started becoming a drop-ship nightmare.
    Soon after, the college decided to renovate every other building besides TSI, and I felt so bitter. I'm glad I graduated before it got worse. Most of my classes, I was just teaching myself, and it felt like I had only one real teacher. It got this way only after my first year. My first year was amazing, and the classes were so good. It's crazy how greed and people who don't understand or value things can ruin everything.
    Before all this happened, the grades were amazing in the TSI building; we had high GPAs on the dean's list. But after this happened, people just lost any guidance and actual teaching they could get. Only a select few students actually made it, and entire sections of classes for certain degrees just got wiped out. The Network Admin Course is still there, but the cybersecurity course is at risk of going away, and the app development is just gone.
    Entire class generations dropped out too. some of those degrees went from having full rooms with no open spaces to only having 4 or 8 students.

I remember when I went to university I was there because it was a direct path to my chosen profession and how surprised I was that probably two thirds of the students had no idea what they wanted to do in life and were basically there to keep from paying room and board at home. The tuition structure in many universities in the states is way out of wack and should be brought back inline with reality but making the tuition free just puts the burden on the taxpayer with little payback to society.

      I went to college four decades ago. After retirement, I went back to college for fun. College is not much fun these days, in or outside the classroom. There are no remarkable young people that look like they're enjoying life or each other. The campus is more interested in halls of diversity, bowling alleys, corporate sponsors, and parking enforcement than articulate lectures. Almost all the professors were from other parts of the planet so the accents made lecture a nightmare. I finished college during the COVID online era which meant the introverted kids finally had a learning Shangri-La and no graduation ceremony. Forty years ago the job fairs had nice recruiters that were interested in the soon to graduate kids. Today, the recruiters are smug, disinterested slot fillers just completing a mandatory assignment. The text books are more intensive today, more information, etc., but the deadlines are meaningless. It turns out, every assignment that I turned in on time was one week early because some student would cry to the Ombudsman about the difficult standards that violated their ADHD schedule or whatever excuse was backed by the administration against the professors. "Time is racist" or some such nonsense rules over traditional standards today, that is what has devalued the degree over everything else.

All those liberal arts grads who couldn’t get jobs got tired of being baristas so they went to law school, and now they can’t get jobs because the field is way too crowded. And now they’re back to pouring coffee and driving for Uber, but with $300,000 in student loan debt. 😂

      Supposedly there’s a big demand for accountants, but I’m not sure about that as a profession. So many accounting jobs have been off-shored to India, where the pay is a lot less. I suppose if you go on to become a CPA you can do well, but staff accountants are worked like dogs and not paid that much. The only positive is that an accountant can always find a job, even if you don’t want to stay there very long, lol.

    Its been this way since I graduated from CSULB back in 1980. The UC system has always gotten more publicity (including sports teams), which helps tremendously. Also remember that the state government always seems to target education funds for programs to the UC system. An example that still stands today is when there are reports of engineering shortages, UC gets more funds even though the bulk of the engineering graduates come from the CSU system.

The Universities don't buy raw materials, build anything, design anything, test anything, warehouse anything, distribute anything. So, where is all the money going? Who is getting all the money?

The community college charges around $1,000+ to non-residents per semester which i can afford with financial aid but over $9,000 to non-residents. I couldn't afford $9,000 per semester for a community college so i didn't go to that school. That's part of the problem.
